DVD Description
The modern day, typical American Robinson family is jettisoned into space aboard the Jupiter 2 space ship, piloted by father, John and made homey by mum, Maureen. The family includes children Will, Penny and Judy along with a handsome co-pilot, Don; a robot who thinks for himself and a dastardly but often likeable saboteur named Dr. Smith. Their mission is to colonize a new planet but a meteor storm throws them off course. Now, no matter where the Robinsons venture, they discover diabolical trouble, amid an amusing array of aliens, cyborgs, creatures, space pirates, black holes and freakish phenomena, to which the robot constantly bellows, "Danger Will Robinson!" This great boxset contains all 83 episodes of Lost In Space plus out-of-this-world special features including Bill Mumy and Jonathan Harris, interviews, Clips, CBS Network Presentation Featurette, "Next on Lost In Space" Teasers, "Target Earth" Act Break and Interstitial Bloopers and Stills Gallery!

If you're a child of the 60s and 70s this collection is a must - man had not landed on the moon when this series was made but the idea of travelling to other worlds was still an interesting prospect. This is a Sci-Fi take on the "Swiss Family Robinson" except instead of being marooned on a desert island the "Space Family Robinson" (Yes that IS the family's name!) are "Lost in Space". The first series was in black & white while series 2 & 3 are colour. The set includes an interesting unaired pilot for the show and, for me anyway, it is a great nostalgia trip to the days of my childhood....

I discover this vintage show, very rare on the french TV (I missed it when only aired 20 years ago). I first thought this belongs to the late 50's, not the mid-60's. It's so naive and somewhat clumsy with this all-American family way of life and cheap SFX... Fortunately, there are the Robot and a funny/strange vilain (did someone point out how Johnathan Harris looks like Clifton Webb ?!). Some episodes are something weird like "Star Trek meets The Wizard of Oz". Don't expect high philosophical or scientific considerations and let your childish brain work.
Transfer is good except for some dye-washed in-color episodes.
No foreign subtitles but the "english for hearing impaired" lines may help.
Fine extras but too short and they have to be search for (no mention on back sleeves except for season one). So I tell you where and what :
season 1 disc 8 :
- Unaired Pilot Episode "No Place To Hide" (a mix of the first four aired-to-be episodes, but without Dr Smith & the Robot. Overture theme and incidental music came from previous Bernard Herrmann movie scores : "The Day the Earth Stood Still", "Beneath the 12-Mile Reef", "Garden of Evil" and "Journey to the Center of the Earth".)
- CBS Pitch Featurette
season 2 disc 8 :
- Original 1966 Lost In Space Interviews (audio only with a slide show) : Guy Williams & June Lockhart Interview, Jonathan Harris Interview
season 3 disc 4 :
- 3d Season Network Bumpers & Tags (x4)
- Program Interstitials (x20)
season 3 disc 7 :
- Target Earth Act Break
- Interstitial Blooper (from Mumy, Harris & Robot in 1995)
- 1995 Bill Mumy Interview Clips (x3)
- 1995 Jonathan Harris Interview Clips (x3)
Season 1 & 2 episodes are introduced by a "Last week on this program" summary and Season 3 ones end with a "Next on Lost In Space" teaser (with the ultimate showing a never-aired episode which, alas, featured the come-back of the great Robbie the Robot).
Note that I received a slightly different box set (an open box with another sleeve and without the booklet I've heard to be in some editions).

These series bring me not only very good memories, but they showed me that old series are much better than many of the actual ones. I'm watching them and I'm really enjoying them,. And, come on, the price is a real bargain. The box, the Dvds presentation and the image quality is excelent, with a lot of extra material. If you want to enjoy and remember again great moments, what are you waiting? Buy this box collection now!!!
